Dragon Clan, Lu Mingfei wants to reach a perfect ending

Chapter 186 Things Under the Cold Current

"According to real-time detection by meteorological satellites, a cold current from the Arctic Ocean has passed through the Bering Strait and is heading towards Hokkaido and the northeastern coastal areas of my country. The above areas will be affected by the cold current, so please take precautions."

The news anchor was reporting the latest weather information, but the Japanese people who saw the news were not too concerned about it.

For them, the impact of warm currents and cold currents is not as great as that of earthquakes and tsunamis, and they have little impact on their lives and work.

On the top floor of Genji Heavy Industries, the head of the Miyamoto family, Miyamoto Shio, slowly walked into the room reserved for the patriarch.

He also had to report the news to the head of the family, but unlike the news reports, what he had to report was not only the cold wave, but also the more serious problems hidden beneath the cold wave detected by the Lava Flow Research Institute.

"Parents."

Miyamoto Shio bowed to Uesugi who was sitting in the main seat and spoke respectfully.

Uesugi Yue shifted his gaze away from the several documents on the table, closed his eyes, rubbed his temple with his left hand, and then looked at Miyamoto Shio who was standing in front of him.

"Feel free to sit down."

Uesugi Etsu was not bound by the tradition that the Snake Eight Clan had followed for thousands of years, but the young Miyamoto Shio did not do so. Instead, he walked slowly to the tatami behind a low table and knelt down on it according to the ancient tradition.

"You family heads are so obsessed with past traditions. Times have changed, and you should also change. A new family head like you who is young and studying abroad should understand this principle even more."

Shang Shanyue put the slightly messy documents on the table in order, and then the door of the room was opened from the outside. A clerical mixed-race person came in with a teapot and teacups, placed the cups in front of the table and began to pour tea.

“When I was a kid, there was a time when I thought the traditions my family adhered to were extremely pedantic. But as I grew older, I suddenly felt that those traditions were not as bad as I had imagined. On the contrary, sometimes I found that the new things I wanted to create seemed so childish, and even worse compared to those traditions that once seemed pedantic.”

Miyamoto Shio's gaze moved from Kamisama Yue downwards until it stopped at the steaming tea on his desk and the neatly folded documents placed beside him.

"Besides, isn't it the same for you, the head of the family? I once heard the head of the Inuyama family say that you didn't like to drink tea before, and you hated troubles the most. But now, haven't you changed yourself and returned to those pedantic traditions?"

Shang Shanyue shook his head slightly, with a helpless expression on his face.

"I think you've been with Inuyama He for too long. You sound like an old man about to step into the grave just like us. A young man like you should be more energetic."

Then Shang Shanyue picked up the teacup and drank the still steaming tea in one gulp.

This tea does not have the mellow aroma or spicy taste of wine. Instead, it just has a faint bitterness that flows through the throat. But after the bitterness lingers for a while, the fragrance of tea leaves lingers in the mouth.

He put down the teacup, his deep eyes relaxed slightly, and when he looked up again, his gaze fell on the photo on the right side of the table. It included him, Minamoto Chisei, Minamoto Chijo, and Eri. If that brat wasn't beside Eri, it would have been a perfect family photo.

“Things may be bitter, but good things will come out of it.”

Uesugi murmured in a low voice, then resumed his usual patriarchal demeanor, looking deeply at Miyamoto Shio who was kneeling on his left.

"What happened that would make you interrupt my arrangements today and report to me personally as the head of the Miyamoto family?"

Miyamoto Shio quickly got to the point and his expression became serious.

"Two days ago, a sudden unknown cold wave was detected by meteorological satellites and meteorological monitoring points floating on the sea. However, considering the detection of geological information and the data prediction of the occurrence of cold waves in the past, this cold wave is very complicated."

Miyamoto Shio knelt opposite Uesugi Yue and handed a stack of papers full of information to Uesugi Yue while reporting.

"What's weird?"

Uesugi Yue did not look at the paper handed over by Miyamoto Shio. He was not well versed in meteorology or geology, so it made no difference whether he looked at it or not. It would be better for him to ask Miyamoto Shio directly.

"The first point is that this cold wave is moving too fast. Normally, even if a cold wave suddenly appears, it would take at least dozens of days to reach our border. But this time, the longer journey from discovery to estimated arrival time only took less than four days."

Miyamoto Shio emphasized that the time was less than four days, which was completely inconsistent with the speed of any previous cold wave. Instead, it was like a missile that was eager to hit its target.

"The second point is that our ultrasonic equipment floating in the sea detected the sound waves transmitted back from the cold current, and the sound waves transmitted back were completely inconsistent with common sense and almost to the point of being absurd."

Miyamoto Shio's brows were furrowed, as if they were about to gather together. The Miyamoto family's Rock Flow Research Institute had high-tech technology related to the ocean, especially in the research of ultrasound, and was even ahead of the secret party.

But because of this, the entire Rock Flow Research Institute could not believe the sound waves obtained this time.

Because based on the sound waves transmitted back, they used Kaguya-hime to draw a graphic of the object, but the answer to the graphic drawing was that there was a huge object under the cold current. It was such a huge object that even the largest ship in the world would be like a kitten in front of it.

"We used Kaguya's ultra-high-speed computing power to quickly draw an image of the echoing sound waves, but the image is so huge that it is almost unbelievable."

"Our initial guess was that the image was an iceberg that had broken off from the Arctic Ocean. Because the sudden cold current started from the Arctic Ocean, it came here with the cold current after breaking off."

"But this speculation was later rejected by some researchers, who believed that it was not an iceberg, because before this, no such huge iceberg had ever been found to be pushed nearly 10,000 kilometers by a cold current."

"Moreover, with such a long journey, even an iceberg would melt by half, but the image we detected after melting still shows such a large scale, which is totally inconsistent with reality."

Miyamoto Shio paused here, and then told Shang Shanyue the biggest problem of this matter.

"But if it is the second guess, then there is a very serious question before us. If it is not a flaking iceberg, then what is it? What is so huge?"

Miyamoto Shio's words made Uesugi's pupils shrink slightly. He knew what Miyamoto Shio meant by what he had not finished saying.

If this is not an iceberg, if this is not dead, then what is it?

A dazzling light burst out from Shangshan Yue's pupils, and the emperor's pressure suddenly gathered in the entire room.

"dragon."

Miyamoto Shio nodded, but his expression was more serious than before.

Because he had never heard of such a huge dragon. Even the god recorded in the legend was slightly inferior to the drawn image. According to the records, the power of the dragon is proportional to its size, which means that if it is really a dragon, it may even be more destructive than the god.

"Even if our second guess is wrong, if it is really an iceberg, it will cause us great harm. According to the direction we estimate the cold current to be heading, it will hit the northeast coast of Hokkaido Island in two days."

"The damage caused by such a huge iceberg is immeasurable. It may trigger the largest earthquake and tsunami in hundreds of years. In addition, whether it is an extinct volcano or an active volcano, it will also erupt at the same time as the impact."

Miyamoto Shio explained one by one the dangers if it really was an iceberg, but Uesugi Yue did not focus on it.

Dead objects are not scary because they cannot think and will only move quietly along the predetermined route. All they can do is blow them into pieces using some method along the way. But if this is really the speculation put forward by Miyamoto Shio.

Shang Shanyue remained silent, rubbing the teacup in his hands.

In fact, having someone in love is not a good thing. If he was still a ramen master with nothing, he could just take a plane to other countries, Europe, the United States, or somewhere else. Anyway, it would be none of his business if this place sank, and he would not feel sad at all.

But now, he raised his head, and his golden eyes were as bright as torches.

"Your Miyamoto family should dispatch a survey ship and place detection instruments along the estimated route of the cold current and the object under it to see what it is, an iceberg or a dragon."

"I will ask the head of the Longma family to contact the military and dispatch warships and other armed forces to escort you. If it is an iceberg, I will arrange a plan to blow it up later. If it is a dragon, then keep a safe distance and try to find out as much information about it as possible. After that, I will do everything I can to make it fall into a permanent sleep.

Shang Shanyue spoke word by word, his whole face filled with cold murderous intent.
